This chapter explores the potential of phytochemicals in modulating human endocrine function, emphasizing the growing interest in plant-derived alternatives to synthetic medications for managing metabolic and hormonal disorders often linked to chemical exposures and lifestyle factors.

In this case study, a 26-year-old woman with hypothyroidism experienced significant improvements in energy, emotional balance, and physical discomfort after individualized homeopathic treatment with Kalium carbonium, demonstrating the potential benefits of a holistic approach to care.

This review highlights that the epidermis acts as an endocrine organ, synthesizing and responding to hormones such as corticosteroids and Vitamin D, impacting processes like hair growth and immune response, and participating in regulating endocrine balance.

This review details the expression and diverse functions of melatonin receptors in non-neural tissues and reports no new clinical findings, emphasizing their potential as therapeutic targets across various physiological and pathological processes.

This review summarizes recent multidisciplinary advances in sebaceous gland research and highlights potential novel therapeutic strategies for skin diseases, but it reports no new clinical results.

This review discusses the role of activin signaling in hair follicle formation, hair growth cycling, and skin healing, but presents no new clinical findings.

This review discusses the impact of COVID-19 on the endocrine system and reports no clinical results; the authors emphasize the need to investigate endocrine damage during and after COVID-19 infection.

This review discusses the mechanism of action of melatonin in various disorders and suggests its potential for designing new receptor ligands, but reports no new clinical findings.

This review discusses the diagnosis, management, and hormone treatment of transsexual individuals, and examines the risks and effects of cross-sex hormone therapy without presenting new clinical results.

This article reviews the use of cross-sex hormonal therapy in transmen and reports that it is reasonably safe, suggesting monitoring should be frequent initially but can be less frequent over time.

This article reviews dermatological manifestations of endocrine diseases in dogs, such as hypothyroidism and hyperadrenocorticism, but reports no new clinical findings.

This article reviews the physiological changes underlying normal pubertal milestones and emphasizes the importance of understanding these changes to assess pubertal abnormalities, without reporting new clinical findings.

These guidelines recommend testing thyroid function in patients with obesity due to common hypothyroidism, and highlight that weight loss is crucial for addressing hormonal imbalances, with only modest weight loss benefits from treating endocrine disorders.

This review discusses guidelines for androgen use in women and concludes that more research is needed before recommending testosterone due to insufficient evidence on safety and efficacy.

This review highlights the eye and skin manifestations of endocrine-related metabolic diseases but provides no new clinical results.

This study found that human hair follicles can function like a peripheral hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal axis, synthesizing cortisol in response to corticotropin-releasing hormone and adrenocorticotropic hormone stimulation.

In this study, Saw Palmetto at a physiological dose partially inhibited 5-α-reductase and improved hormonal balance, inflammation, and mitochondrial function, with synergy observed when combined with Lycopene, L-Arginine, and Astaxanthin, enhancing male prostatic and endocrine health without endocrine side effects.

In this study, metformin was highlighted as effective in improving metabolic parameters and restoring ovulatory function in women with PCOS by enhancing insulin sensitivity, inhibiting hepatic gluconeogenesis, and influencing lipid metabolism, although a tailored, comprehensive treatment plan remains essential.

This study reviewed recent advances in regenerative technologies for aesthetic and reconstructive medicine and found that adipose-derived stem cells and platelet-rich plasma are well-established for tissue repair due to their safety and effectiveness, while emerging technologies like exosome-based therapies hold future potential.

The skin's layers protect, sense, and regulate the body's internal balance, but can be prone to cancer.

This study validated a method for measuring cortisol levels in hair, which may serve as a biomarker for chronic stress in both humans and various animals.

This brief report discusses spironolactone used as a treatment for hirsutism in a hyperandrogenic woman, offering no new clinical findings and focusing on its antiandrogenic properties.

This study found that higher prenatal and early childhood lead exposure may be associated with delayed pubertal development in girls, but not in boys, in Mexico City.

In this study, silver foxes given a yeast "filtrate factor" supplement retained their fur and normal pelts, while those without it experienced fur loss and thymus abnormalities.

This review discusses the molecular differences between male and female responses to SARS-CoV-2 infection and highlights the lack of specific guidelines for altering sex-specific COVID-19 prognoses.

This study found a significant association between patients' sex of rearing and external genitalia in those with gonadal dysgenesis, while noting lower testosterone levels compared to controls.

This study found that the Qing Cuo Formula significantly reduced serum androgen and inflammatory cytokine levels in hamsters with damp-heat acne and identified potential molecular mechanisms and active compounds involved.

This study suggests that higher use of phytoestrogen-containing hair and personal care products may increase the association between permanent hair dye, straightener use, and breast cancer risk in black women.
